Combating ISIS

Last Thursday the United States dropped what is called the ‘Mother of all bombs,’ the largest conventional explosive, targeting tunnels used by ISIS militants. The bombing killed at least 94 ISIS fighters. President Trump called it a ‘very successful mission,’ an echo of his statement after the missile strike in Syria. However, Trump’s Middle East and ISIS policy seem to be a ‘roving policy’ with no real focus or direction. Has Trump given up on his campaign pledge to stay out of Syria?
